1. INTRODUCTION Recently, there has been increased interest in the simulation of large-scale radio networks. Two major and conflicting obstacles in the simulation of large-scale radio networks are the simulation run time and the accuracy of the simulation results. Since all projects have time constrains, it is often not impossible to conduct lengthy simulation experiments. In our experience, fo...

Spacely Sprockets (a pseudonym) specializes in the manufacture of aerospace products. The corporate mission of Spacely Sprockets is simply “client success”, which drives the expectation that every product must work the first time, every time. Spacely Sprockets relies on accurate application of torque when tightening mechanical fasteners during the manufacturing process. Torque is a twisting for...

This paper describes the development of new methods and software leveraging Software Defined Networking (SDN) technology that has become common in terrestrial networking. We are using SDN to improve the state-of-the-art in design and operation of aerospace communication networks. SDN enables the implementation of services and applications that control, monitor, and reconfigure the network layer...
